Re: Improbable Vacations
I would LOVE to be able to take an extended trip to Costa Brava, Spain and study molecular gastronomy under Ferran Adria!!! El Bulli has closed down, so there goes one unrealized item off of my bucket list, but if even given the chance, I would run off to culinary school in Spain.
Sigh.
You’re really putting miles on that smiley aren’t you?
That would be great though. Up the cooking repertoire.
I’ve always wanted to do a 3-6 month voluntourism - sort of immerse myself in another place and “do good” at the same time. But a friend recently sent me an article that suggested that we of the Western world in our arrogance are doing more harm than good with certain voluntourism jaunts - our help isn’t nearly as helpful as you would think
But, yes if I could choose an improbable vacation, I wouldn’t go very far. Just rent a beach house along an ocean coast (could be Atlantic or Pacific) and try and write the next great novel. It’s improbable because as a working drone, such extended time off isn’t available to me, but a girl can dream can’t she :hinna:
Same! I wish I could live for a few months in each of the countries I’m interested in. The writing career sounds good, perhaps something titled “Tales from the Trolley”. :halo:
